"This intoxicating, beautifully smelling scent filled my nostrils. I breathed it in just one more time, to make sure I wasn't dreaming. It was.. real. All of it. I felt like I was ready to explode, but, in a good way. Wait, what- is that even possible? This is killing me. I'm dying to know where this smell of spices and a hint of musk is coming from. These feelings that I feel right now are completely foreign to me. I just.. I don't know. Suddenly I can feel this stare pierce through the back of my head, and instantly my body fills up with heat, and more emotion. I look back, and I'm completely stunned by the gorgeous man leaning into the door. I just saw him, though I feel like we've known each other for the longest time. I only have one question on my mind, and I need the answers, fast..who is he?" Jelyn Weston is your all- around Cali girl.
